The dvd of SHINOBI HEART UNDER BLADE U.S. version is almost an real duplicate of the Region-3 Thai version. I have both the 3-disc Japanese region-2 copy and the Hong Kong Region-3 DTS-ES dvd. The japanese and Hk releases have the best transfers. If you have multi-region capability, prefer the Japanese or Hong Kong versions. But whatever you do, do not miss this film.

The following review applies to the Hong Kong Region-3 release:
I unprejudiced finished watching my dvd copy of this film and felt that I have to review this marvelously tragic but hopeful film. Mind you, this SHINOBI film does not follow any of the video-game inspired Shinobi titles, rather it is based on the JAPANESE FEUDAL Memoir from which both the video game and the anime series “Basilisk” were based on.

In order for you to fancy this film, you have to have an belief of Japanese customs and their unrelenting loyalty to their emperor/leader. For them, their Emperor is like a living God-man. That is why when a recent Shogunate has united feudal Japan, he fears that the wrath of the SHINOBI may upset the balance of power. SHINOBI is the elite NINJA clan, who has been trained since birth in the art of combat and warfare.
Two Ninja clans has had a truce for years that the unique Lord of the shogunate has lifted this truce and has misled them into believing that each clan will befriend settle who will ascend to the role of shogun(in the future) should they have 5 of their greatest and most skilled warriors to battle each other in a contest to the death. Gennusuke and Oboro are the lovers caught in the middle because each have ascended to the role of chieftain in their respective clans. In truth, the Shogunate rulers wish to waste their clans because they apprehension their powers/skills and that one day rise up against the Supreme Shogunate of Japan. They occupy since their goal is peace and prosperity, war mongers should be feeble because they bear that without war, they have no purpose. Some members of the clans also acquire this.
Each clan warrior has character and depth, with variable skills and abilities. One warrior is like a chameleon, one has simian-like agility, one has NEAR-immortality, a woman has poison that goes around her skin/breath, one is a blind psychic among others.
The film itself is very tragic and when Oboro makes the supreme sacrifice to put the children/families of both clans, even the shogunate had to beget that the SHINOBI can have more than one purpose in life.
The status designs were awesome and the characters were well designed. The special effects weren’t all hokey and fit the movie’s jog. As in most samurai films, the battles were posthaste and fascinating, although not overly bloody.
The film is one of the best ASIAN fantasy-epic films I’ve seen thus far. The dvd I have was mastered in High-def widescreen(EXTREMELY Tantalizing transfer) with 5.1 (DTS) digital audio(I didn’t collect mind in AMAZON) . I highly recommend this film, now I have to bellow for a PREQUEL about the warring clans before! 4.5 stars all the design!!
Kagero ROCKS!!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
ADDED: I managed to view the U.S. region-1 release by Funimation. It is less than 2 minutes shorter than the region-3 DTS-ES Hong Kong release. Nothing relevant was missing, except for an extended beginning and Oboro’s encounter with one of the Kouga warriors. The video of the Asian release is a lot sharper/crisper than the Funimation transfer. As I conception, the Funimation transfer was derived from the Thai version.
In the same spirit of Crouching Tiger and Hidden Dragon, Shinobi goes very deep into cultural roots with a heavy dose of “Animé” like action to get a compelling cherish sage rich with visual fanfare.
Though the romantic space is not as grand as Crouching Tiger or House of Flying Daggers, it is smooth a compelling tale for which you will want to know how it ends. But frankly, the steady meat and potatoes of this movie is about the combat and the very Animé inspired characters. There are other live action animés out there, but this has speedy taken it’s area to my number one well-liked amongst them. Bonus points for making this accessible to the commence non-initiated public. Naruto fans should gain the same kind of spirited character concepts, set for the fact that everything is taken with a very weak tone (no teen feeble ninjas here) . Anyone who liked Warriors of Zu Mountain or Storm Riders will definitely want to lift this up.
